Anthropic Connection

Learn how to configure an Anthropic connection for Infisical.

Infisical supports connecting to Anthropic using an API Key. This connection is used to power PAM AI Session Insights.

Prerequisites

• An Anthropic account with access to the API
• Sufficient API credits or an active billing plan on your Anthropic account

Create an Anthropic API Key

1. Navigate to API Keys

   In the Anthropic Console, go to Settings → API Keys and click Create Key.

   
2. Name and create the key

   Give the key a descriptive name (e.g. infisical-pam) and click Create Key. Copy the generated API key, as it will only be shown once.

   

Create a dedicated API key for Infisical rather than reusing an existing one. This makes it easy to rotate or revoke access independently.

Infisical UI

   In your Infisical dashboard, go to Organization Settings → App Connections.

   
2. Select Anthropic Connection

   Click Add Connection and choose Anthropic from the list of available connections.

   
3. Fill out Connection Form

   Complete the form with:

   • A name for the connection (e.g. anthropic-prod)

   • An optional description

   • Your Anthropic API Key (from the steps above)

     
4. Connection Created

   After clicking Create, Infisical validates the key against the Anthropic API. Your Anthropic Connection is then ready to use for PAM AI Session Insights.
